Cutting You Own Hair.

Hello everyone. My question is, have you tried cutting your own hair? I wanted to have a hair cut but time is not permitting me. Too much to do in the house and with the kids exam and homework. Plus I have a hard time having my own hair stylist. I used to have one when I was still single and living in our old house in a different city. I will just tell my stylist what I like and he will do it and I am satisfied. But nowadays, I cannot find that anymore. It seems every time I try a new salon or a new hairstylist, I am unsatisfied. I am trying to see if I can cut my own hair. At leat if I am not satisfied, it is because I am not a professional. what do you think? have you tried cutting you own hair before?

I think it's easier for a male. I do it all the time. My styles are short, real short, and even shorter. Wash and wear.

How do you do that for leveling at the back. Honestly, hair is a liability. We should have wigs like jackets. Today I want to wear purple hair..ok..pull that one out...stick it, tie it and off to work..like a cap. LOL

@vandana7 I agree with you. To have it color is very expensive. The wigs nowadays look better and nicer too.

I haven't had my hair cut for ages but soon I'll get a trim. It is long now and suits me better but I would like a few inches cut off.

So are you going to cut it yourself or go to the salon to have a hair trim?

Yes I cut my own hair. But I will ask someone else to trim the ends in back, Tony or my sister. I have always trimmed my own bangs, I cut my sisters hair and my dads growing up. I cut Tony`s now too.

I have done it for years with my long hair. My friend's sister taught me how she puts her head upside down to let the hair hang - and she cuts it straight across. The result is a long layered cut if you like it like that - but I am not picky and was fine with it. That being said, I tried to do a "new" cut about a month ago. It looked pretty bad, so I finally decided to get a "real" haircut from a "real" salon. I am embarrassed that even she thought it was bad. But now I have a "cool" short cut and I love it - I wouldn't have been able to do this style on my own!

@rakski Like I said, I am not too picky - I will just about let any pro cut my hair if the price is right. This last one I found reviews of online . . . she really was good and actually the price was fair.

oh okay. SO maybe I should just rim it first so if ever it is not good, I will have more hair even if I go to the salon.

@rakski yes, probably trim your hair gradually so you may not end up having a shorter hair.
